Chapter 6 is done.
We are moving on to chapter 7 (Algebra Expressions and Equations). It is absolutely critical that students do not fall behind for the next 6-8 weeks since this unit, along with chapter 8 is what will prepare them for a major component of grade 9 math.
Assigned today (and thus, becomes weekend homework): pg 292-295, #1-10.
On Tuesday, we’ll discuss these issues again as a group before moving forward, but it is important that students put time into completing assigned tasks to the best of their ability on their own and seek help from me after they have done everything they can do.
